I think what you're specifically trying to do is what is referred to as "world-building" or paracosms, the sort of thing that authors tend to use, especially for complex universe narratives. I'm a world-builder, a lucid dreamer, and have interest in memory loci. World-building is the sort of...

I consider disabled and learning disordered people as "normal" people trapped in disabled minds. Most importantly, it is not that they are incapable of thinking and acting the way that "normal" people do, but that it takes much longer or requires more effort to do so. I do not think at all...
